I've just tagged a new #fwupd release for your delectation: https://github.com/fwupd/fwupd/releases/tag/2.1.5

Highlights include a whole lot more tests, some new hardware support -- and UEFI db updates for more people. There are also a few fixes for regressions in the last release.

Perhaps interestingly for some people, this release also allow updating the Windows (not UEFI 3rd Party) CA on dual boot machines. This makes it possible to boot a newly provisioned windows machine -- or boot new Windows install media.

We don't offer the update on every machine as we want to conserve the NVRAM flash space for things that affect Linux, like dbx updates. There's an override (man fwupd.conf) if you want it anyway.

If you want to try this, do "fwupdmgr enable-remote lvfs-testing" and tomorrow there should be an update available. I'll move it to stable when it's had some success reports in the 'testing' remote.
